Rockies Rout Braves Behind Jimenez’s Strong Pitching

The Colorado Rockies stars shone brightest at Coors Field last night as they ripped the Atlanta Braves 12-3 to snap a three-game losing streak. Troy Tulowitzki got the offense going with a three-run home run in the first inning, and Carlos Gonzalez added a two-run homer in the second inning to help the Rockies off to a fast start. The two big flies provided plenty of offense for Ubaldo Jimenez, who worked six and two thirds innings, allowing two runs and striking out nine for his third straight victory and sixth of the season. Dexter Fowler added a three-run triple to help the winning cause. The Rockies beat the Braves for the first time in six tries with the win. They play game three of their four game set in Denver tonight. ESPN Radio 1410 has the action with pregame coverage at 7:05 and the first pitch at 7:40.
